+     "This Python module provides line editing functions similar to the default
+Emacs-style ones of GNU Readline.  Unlike the Python standard library's
+@code{readline} package, this one allows access to those capabilties in settings
+outside of a standard command-line interface.  It is especially well-suited to
+interfacing with Urwid, due to a shared syntax for describing key inputs.
+
+Currently, all stateless Readline commands are implemented.  Yanking and history
+are not supported.")
